This song is sung in Latin. It starts gently, adding one harmony line at a time. It is an old hymn, writen in the late 16th century by Giovanni Gabrieli.
Hodie Christus (The Christ is Born)
Giovanni Gabrieli (1557-1612)
| Latin |

Hodie Christus natus est:
hodie Salvator apparuit:
hodie in terra canunt Angeli,
lætantur Archangeli:
hodie exsultant justi, dicentes:
Gloria in excelsis Deo,
et in terra pax hominibus bonæ voluntatis:
Alleluia.
|
Today Christ is born:
today the Savior has appeared:
today the Angels sing,
the Archangels rejoice:
today the righteous rejoice, saying:
Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace and good will towards men:
Alleluia. |
